You’re in charge of building an NFL team from scratch, and you’ve got some big decisions to make. Starting with the biggest choice any general manager faces: Who’s your quarterback?
Daniel Jones?
Sam Darnold?
Neither?
As the Giants and Jets prepare to square off on Sunday at MetLife Stadium, the quarterback issue is front and center with both teams. Jones and Darnold are top 10 picks who are being counted on to lead their respective teams for the next dozen or so years. But the early results for either player haven’t been entirely promising.
Jones, the sixth overall pick this year out of Duke, had a spectacular debut when he was named the Giants’ starter after Eli Manning got off to an 0-2 start.
